Yea exactly, its the only thing I have to do... They just painted the whole apartment also so I dont have to worry about that
The whole apartment is 392 sq ft, at least 300 sq ft needs the new flooring... I found the wood floors for $1.19/sq ft... So it comes out to about $357
They just said yesterday that they would pay half plus her husband will install it
Win for me

Yeah, I mean people are mostly right, it's not wise to invest in a rental, but if it'll come out to less than 200 bucks and it'll make you happy in the apartment, then go for it.
It's not a large amount of money or any labor involved for you, so not the end of the world.

Finally done with all the open space... Not that bad, took 2 days between 3 of us(of course not working it straight)
Today, we're doing the kitchen and hopefully the moldings... Almost done!

I purchased my West Elm sofa on Craigslist for $500. I would stay away from Ikea if you can afford to. I also think CB2 has some dope stuff.

That was the reason we ditched ours. We sold it on CL for 480 and bought the West Elm. Net $20 upgrade. lol

I plan on that but I was looking on Pinterest and saw where some had gotten like some kind of tape and put patterns on their wall. Thought about doing something like that and wondered if anyone had ever done something similar.
